I am in Germany safe and sound. I have 10 min until the internet cafe I am at closes and wanted to write SOMETHING. There are many updates swimming in my head, but I have not had the time/internet access/computer to upload them. I will be in Austria next week and then in the USA the week after. In the interest of staying somewhat relevant I will have to drop more of the details on the games last week before I left for Europe.
The details of the first team games so far are here: http://www.cascadesurge.com/frameset.php. We had two reserve matches back to back Monday-Tuesday with a practice sandwiched in between. A 4-3 win (with an amazing bicycle kick by Dave Pihlblad for our first goal) and another 4-3 loss. I was proud to be a captain along with Dave both games. Some of the guys you read about in the first team game recaps in the link “guest starred in our game”. All of them good players, quality guys. Wednesday was a day off (aside from our school program) and then Thursday a flight to Germany.
I'm sorry to write that the game a while back with 3 red cards was an embarrassment to the team. But, we've got our heads on right now and are moving on. A selfish note, it would have been good for me because those cards along with some injuries may have given me a shot at the line-up. But, I left the States before I had a chance to find out, eh. Time's up, bye!
